First thing in the morning, last thing at night

 

Yes. After a long break, I finally got my hands on to a sketchbook again. I participated in an artist community project organized by the Brooklyn Art Library, NY. It is a tour with sketchbooks filled out by artists participating from all over the world. The tour/ exhibition travels across 9 cities in the USA to different art galleries starting February 2011 till June 2011 . The topic I chose to work on was ‘first thing in the morning, last thing at night’. The Art Library sent each artist a moleskin sketchbook to fill out. Having had this fetish for sketchbooks always, I just grabbed this opportunity.

the making of the sketchbook

40 pages of my sketchbook will take you through a journey of ‘first things in the mornings and last things at night’. Here is a glimpse of a few pages from my sketchbook.

You can view the complete sketchbook here: http://arthousecoop.com/users/poornimavaidyanathan until the official website of the online exhibition is up that is due to be launched this month.

The exhibition is currently on at the Brooklyn Art Library, NY for view until the 6th of March 2011. The sketchbooks travel to the Austin museum of Art, TX from here and will be on for view on March 12th, 2011. Here is the complete tour schedule: http://arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject/exhibitions. Do visit the exhibition if it’s in your town.
